Sentinel - Tiki

By the shores of a quite lagoon - little King Wana Pay-Day stands near a one of the ancient village guardians. His eyes fall on a sail he's never seen near the reef's breakwater.

run or stand?

something haunting about the tropical themes. remember my fascination with old 1930s and 40s movies like Bamba, Tarzan and some vague memory about DC3 that crashes in the jungle with headhunters closing in... it takes off, but the old couple is left behind with only one bullet in the gun... heebie-jeebies!
